Leb-- Absolutely agree with one proviso: There should be nothing in the wildy that a non-PKer needs. Think of it as a big free for all duelling arena. I have no problem with that. Maybe have some minigame or activities that ONLY those skilled (and interested) in PKing can participate in. No problem. And yes, I know there have been representations made that at least some non-PK activities will be moved out. But many more activities currently take you into the wildy; they should be moved or made safe zones too.
But by the time you do all that, why not jus* leave pvp worlds with the old style PKing where to the victor belongs the spoils? Why does everyone insist it just can't work unless unwilling victims can be killed?
Admit it. It's because you guys get your jollies off ruining other people's days. It's like the people who liked to slam doors on people or whirl their bullroarers for hours just to annoy people. Go annoy each other and leave the rest of us (the MAJORITY) alone.

I personally think that this is the best thing that jagex has ever done! RuneScape hasn't been the same since Wilderness and "fair-trade" were removed.. But now, i can see some light in teh head of a tunnel, i hope that the vote will go trough, and the game will be made more enjoyable again :) thank you, osborne and other Jagex staff!

Perigryyn--
When I started playing I figured I'd train up combat, then go kill people for their stuff, though I also enjoyed other skills. As I played though, I realized I just didn't have the DESIRE to take other players' stuff from them that they worked so hard to earn. It felt like it took me forever to work up to where I could afford decent equipment; I WORKED for my money. I didn't scam or bot or merch, so maybe wealth (good equipment) meant more to me than to others. There was no way I wanted to go take someone else's from them.
And having decided that, I also could see that plenty of other people were PKing and duelling from pretty much day one, so I would never be as good at it as they were anyway.
Again, it's like real life. Normal people aren't into beating people up for their lunch money, so we don't get any good at it.
At level 134(?) I probably don't have TOO much to fear zipping into the wildy in D'hide to do a clue, but these people like forming gangs; there's no way to defend yourself with 4 or 5 people attacking you with different styles all at once. And it's not about me anyway. It's about segregating this particular brand of anti-social player from everyone else, not just me.

Worst idea ever, the loss of the old wilderness did have draw backs but there is plenty of oppurtunity to Pk at the moment and if they get rid of set prices are we going to loose the grand exchange !? people will loose millions !
